LoginConrad Murray Shopping Film About Jackson's Death
By: Lynette Holloway | Posted: November 3, 2011
EURweb is reporting that Michael Jackson's personal doctor, Conrad Murray, currently on trial for administering the fatal dose of propofol that killed the pop star, is pitching a TV documentary about his final moments.
As the high-profile case enters closing arguments on Thursday, Murray is negotiating to cash in on his side of the story by selling the documentary to a major TV network once a verdict has been reached, reports the New York Post.
According to the paper, Murray has been filming interviews for the project throughout the trial and the documentary will come as a package deal, with the winning network also receiving the first post-trial interview with Murray.
A source tells the Post: "A news division that pays for the documentary will end up with a side deal of getting the sit-down with Conrad. It's crafted in such a way for a news division that doesn’t pay for interviews ... They have already filmed a long interview in case he's taken into custody."
A rep for CNN confirms such a project is in the works, but the network has "passed on it."
If this account is true, CNN was wise to pass on the project, and Conrad Murray has once again reportedly shown poor judgment. The public has heard enough of his alleged side of the story. Now, just as he held Jackson's fate in his hands, his will be held in the hands of jurors soon enough.
